Wisconsin congressman returning to work after surgery

The 53-year-old Democrat said Wednesday that he's lost 15 pounds since the pre-emptive surgery. The congressman underwent the surgery in Madison after tests revealed he had severe blockage in three arteries. Pocan plans to fly back to Washington next week.

He says he began jogging on Wednesday as part of his rehabilitation program and feels "really good." He initially went in for heart tests after feeling ill following a workout last fall.

Pocan is in his third term representing the southern Wisconsin district that includes Madison.
